nice place to raise a family

I have lived in Indianola over 10 years. The community is growing, friendly and homes/yards are mostly well-kept. We feel generally safe here. Schools are a priority  More

Wonderful town.
Over 5 years ago

I grew up here and wish I had never left. The people are warm, friendly, and kind. It is a seriously great place to raise your children, find a church, sit on your front  More
